 You must forgive me. I've been off and haven't had to
think for a couple of days... :-)

You are correct. I am using startx, which calls xinit. I'm not sure what
happens from that point.

Maybe I'll try startxwin.sh.

That didn't seem to help. I still get the MS Windows window manager as
well as the IRIX wm. Also, after I reverted, the tekplot application
will now not plot anything at all.

Here's the error message I got:

Look in /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.sh and look for the line that says...

XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error &

and change it to

XWin -rootless -clipboard -silent-dup-error

That will give you an Xserver with no window manager and then allow you
to start the one from your IRIX box.

You might be on to something, though. I started up the IRIX window
manager, 4Dwm. Most of my windows then had the standard MS-Windows
frame, and within that, the Motif-style window manager
decorations/frame. If I made a plot using Tekplot, and moved the plot
window around when it initially had the MS-Windows frame around it, then
the window would redraw once. At that time the "extra" MS-Windows style
frame would disappear, and the only remaining frame was the 4Dwm frame.
At that point, nothing I could do seemed to cause a redraww of the plot
window. I'm using rxvt. Now, I'm wondering if I ought to use only native
X-windows apps, xterms, etc.

I'd also like to be able to start up Xwin with NO window manager, if I
can start one up on the remote machine (like 4Dwm on the remote IRIX
machine). Is that possible? Which window manager starts up when the X
server is started up on the local PC?

O.k. It sounds like tekplot's problem then on the way it's dealing with

Tekplot application repeatedly redraws under XFree

Greetings:

I am using Cygwin/Xfree:

version number:11.0
vendor string:The Cygwin/X Project
vendor release number:60802000

The operating system is MS Windows XP. 

I have found that when using the Tekplot application, if I move the
window around a bit, almost always it will begin to perpetually redraw
the graph. All other applications I have tried appear to work as
expected: Netscape, Firefox, Clearcase, Nedit, etc.

I have tried running with backing store turned both ON and OFF (as well
as save-unders) - don't know if that makes a difference.

I have tried searching the web, readign FAQS, etc., but can't find
anything that helps.

Any suggestions?

Subject: bug: tool tip popups on minimized windows
Reply-to: cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com

I'm running release 6.7.0.0-12 with the arguments "-multiwindow
-clipboard".  I run the X11 version of Emacs (from the
emacs-X11-21.2-13.tar.bz2 package) which has tooltip popup windows for the
toolbar icons.  Even after I minimize the window, I get the tooltips if I
leave the mouse where the toolbar used to be.  I just wanted to report the
problem; I don't know if this is a known issue.  I didn't see anything
about it in the mailing list archives.

Thanks,

David

Doug, that sounded like a reasonable idea.  However, it didn't work for me.  :)

I'm thinking that there exists some binding between the Xwin process and the 
terminal window that
started the process, and that perhaps I need to start it in a way (fork, etc.) 
that eliminates
this binding.

As I attempted to say, the bash process ($$) ends and Xwin lives on (both 
before and after I
manually close the window).

Thanks for the suggestion.

XFree 6.8.2.0-4- Failed Graphics startup, White windows.

2005-08-01 Thread Lowe Rob-ROBLOWE2

Hi Guys,

I have a problem with my XP installation on a Dell Latitude laptop. My X
knowledge is sadly lacking I'm afraid I have always looked plaintively at IT
for help on such things in the past. I have just installed the latest, I think,
version of cygwin and tried to start up the X server.

I copied the template .xinitrc file to my local user directory and then typed
startx. Then a window opens with nothing in it, just plain white. I have used
both startx from a cygwin bash prompt and startxwin from DOS, same result.
However when I installed it on my basic PC system at home it worked first time.

If I try to open xclock from the start menu, likewise, I get a plain white
box. I have found I can type commands into my plain white xterm box, I can't
see them, but they do execute. So for example I typed "xterm -fg white -bg
black" and I got another plain white box, the "~" in the title bar is white
too... Any ideas? I'm not sure where to start I have wondered if it is
colour map related, but wouldn't know how to tell.

I found the log file and have included it below, along with my .xinitrc and
.Xresources. I have noted that the size of the white box varies when I delete
the .xresources file... I dunno if this is a clue... I found on the net some
hints toward it maybe being an old DirectX version so I have downloaded the
latest version of DirectX (v9), I have closed all other programs to try and
ensure free (non-swapped) RAM, no joy.

Hope you can point me in the right direction, thanks in advance,

Rob

Hi all,

I actually use Cygwin/X to display software from remote Unix servers.

It really works fine except with matlab 6 :
When I launch matlab, the main window appears on my local display but
the keyboard seems inactive.
(I cannot type anything inside the matlab's command window)

Moreover, a left click is a "paste" (?), middle is also "paste" while
the right click opens correctly the context menu.



Maybe a problem with modifier keys. Try disabling numlock.

I can also notice that the statusbar (at the bottom of the matlab 
window) stays on "initializing" and never switches to "Ready".


I've found some keyboard problems on the mathworks' web site, but only 
for some specific keys like numpad and those workarounds don't work for me.


Is it a known problem ? Is there something to do ?

I've checked this but can not come up with a solution. Actually it seems the 
taskbar
explicitly hides from those windows and does even expose windows which were 
below
the taskbar before when the Cygwin/X window (even the root window) gets 
activated.
But I could not find a place where such an behaviour is forced.  

It seems you'll have to live with that.

I get these same errors if the .Xdefaults file happens to be in DOS ( LF/CR

Thanks. That works in .Xdefaults. I must have been doing something wrong. Even 
though the colours are right I get strange messages when I open a new xterm 
(typing "xterm&" or "xterm") though. Like this:

" is not defineding: Color name "black

Even more strange: the taskbar will hide if a Cygwin/X window has the focus. 
and other windows which were behind the taskbar before are now visible too. 
I'll have to take a closer look. Maybe this was once added as a feature to 
make areas visible which were hidden otherwise.

You can add bugs to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xorg
Component is DDX/cygwin and assign the bug to ago at freedesktop dot org.

Xfree covers "always on top" taskbar

2005-06-29 Thread Tobias Polzin

Hi,

I configured my win-taskbar to be "always on top" and other windows respect
this, but any Xfree window (e.g. an xterm) can be put above the taskbar,
which is quite annoying.

I start XWin with:

 XWin -dpi 92 -multiwindow -clipboard -multiplemonitors -xkbvariant
nodeadkeys -ac

The "Maximize" Button works correctly, in the sense that it leave space for
the taskbar.

By the way: Is there a bug-tracking database for Cygwin-Xfree? If not,
wouldn´t it be good to have one?

Regards,
  Tobias

The bash thing sounds like a general Cygwin problem, so you should take it
to the main Cygwin list (redirecting and setting Reply-To:).  Do you
happen to run a VPN in addition to your wireless connection?
Also, please review <http://cygwin.com/problems.html> to see how you can
provide the relevant information about your system.
HTH,
Igor

Cygwin Xfree not functional on laptop with wireless

2005-01-19 Thread Browning, Jeff

All:

I have installed Cygwin Xfree on my T40 laptop and yesterday when in the
office over a normal wired ethernet connection, it was working fine.

Today, I am working from home over a wireless connection, and Cygwin has
become completely non-functional. The bash shell shows nothing,
basically it's just dead. Running the startxwin.bat file from a normal
DOS window shows the usual start message. The X icon appears, but will
display nothing. Eventually, the X icon vanishes, apparently a silent
crash.

Any clue what is going on here?

Regards,
Jeff

Re: openGL problem in cygwin-xfree?

My sincerest apologies for the earlier repetitive messages, but
when I first sent them, I got a message saying they had not
been delivered, so I persistently tried revising them to make them
short enough to be deliverable. Alas, the messages did get
through --- but only partially --- despite the server saying otherwise. 
So, sorry about the (unintentional) deluge.

I am posting the material to a website, and once that gets
done, I'll simply send a message go this group giving
the URL where the problem is described.  Once again,
sorry about the spam deluge.

Re: openGL problem in cygwin-xfree?

I am sending this message in two parts because the cygcheck
listings cause the message to exceed the limitation on mesage size
set by the server.

This message further illustrates the problem of openGL working
and then not working with remote TCL/TK applications in different
cygwin builds.To demonstrate the problem,
I restored an earlier version of cygwin I had backed up with
which I successfully ran, remotely, a TCL/TK application
that employs openGL.  I have attached cygcheck files from
the cygwin setups where openGL functions properly; the
cygcheck output where openGL fails (openGL_malfunctions.txt)
is in the following message.  Interestingly, both setups use
the same version of openGL (version 1.1.0-7), but there
are differences elsewhere in the build.  Can anyone infer
from these data the reason why TCL/TK bombs with the
more recent cygwin build?

Thanx in advance for your help.
